And there's good news for fans hoping to see gameplay footage, because a huge 40-player multiplayer stream will take centre stage.

The Star Wars Battlefront 2 EA Play live stream has an 8.30pm UK start time on June 10.

It all revolves around the Assault on Theed, which fans may remember from Star Wars: Episode One – The Phantom Menace.

"At EA Play, you’ll be able to watch the first-ever live gameplay reveal of Star Wars Battlefront II, featuring livestream of 40-player gameplay set during the Assault on Theed – one of the new multiplayer battles from the prequel trilogy," reads an EA statement.

"Clone Troopers will mount a desperate defence against the invading forces of the Separatist Battle Droids.

"Can the Republic forces stop the relentless crawl of the massive Multi-Troop Transport as it lumbers toward the palace doors?"
